The premise

Once the booming home of pharmaceutical giant Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City is now a dying Midwestern town. The company’s exodus left the city a wasteland…with great evil brewing below the surface. When that evil is unleashed, the townspeople are forever…changed…and a small group of survivors must work together to uncover the truth behind Umbrella and make it through the night.

Horror Vault's take

Set in the decaying Midwestern town of Raccoon City — once propped up by the sinister Umbrella Corporation — this reboot strips the franchise back to its survival-horror roots, drawing heavily from the lore of the original video games. When a catastrophic threat emerges from the shadows of Umbrella's abandoned experiments, the townspeople pay a horrifying price. A ragged band of survivors must navigate two iconic locations in a desperate race to stay alive and expose the truth. Fans of the games will find plenty of familiar faces and easter eggs woven throughout the chaos.
